I want to go a size bigger on the front tire, what is best tire to use? I'm getting Dunlop E3 for the back, I looked up 140/70r18 didn't see that size or I typed in the wrong size

My front is Dunlop 251 150/60/18 and rear Dunlop E3. I paid $212 for the front and $168 for the rear.

Doesn't Dunlop make the E3 in a 160/6018?. When I bought my 2008, it had a Dunlop 160/6018 on the front, and a 250/40 or 45/18 on the back. I've had nothing but great success with all of the 160/6018 front tires on my 9s, and all of them (with the exception of the Dunlop tire) have been Metzeler tires. My recommendation would be to go with the Metzeler 160/60/18 front, and the Metzeler 260/40/18 rear, if you're running the stock wheels on your 9.

According to Dunlop's website, E3 130/70/18 is the only size for our bikes.
